... Failing that, is there a way to export the entire slide show's set of slides as a sequence of graphics files so that I could embed links to the individual images? (Somehow this seems less elegant than the OLE approach.)

You may be interested to follow, vote for, or comment on Issue 77824:
  Copy/paste Impress slide to Writer is corrupted
  http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=77824

The only way I know of to do this is to
1) From Impress, export to HTML
   This will create a complete set of images, along with some html
   "glue" pages.
** Make sure you create a new folder and enter that folder before
   you export, or you will mix all the presentation files (3 files
   per slide) with your document files.
2) Insert the images into your Writer file: Insert > Picture > From file
   Unfortunately, you have to do it one at a time, and you have to
   re-format (for size & position) each image as you add it.

It's a lot of repetitive work that should be handled better by OOo, but that's the way it is for now.
